what a difference a day makes...

hey y'all!
yesterday, i had an amazing run! i've been doing yoga for a whole week now, and i think it's made me very calm and focused. i haven't been to work because of the whole contract thing, so i think that the yoga helped me get through the week of being at home. i know that hb is ready for me to go back to work!
i ran 2 miles yesterday in 33 minutes. not a great pace, but not a bad one either. i decided to go 1 minute running, and 1 minute walking, and boy did it help. i was focused mentally, and it really felt like the run flew by! i'm ready to tackle tomorrow's run of 2.5 miles. i actually loved the run on thursday, and i think saturday will be no different :)
next week, hb is flying up to dc, and i will be home alone. i hate driving, so i've decided to walk to work as my exercise. the walk to work is barely 1 mile, so i've decided that i need to do my yoga before i go to work, and then the jillian workout when i come home. some of the gals at shopping is our cardio do the 30 day shred, and i decided to view it the other day to see if it's something i could do. the moves seem easy enough, but i know that it's gonna kick my butt. i think that's the point, no? lol - i'm tryin' to keep this year's motto of reducing my behind in 2009 in check. if you are a comcast customer and want to try it out - go to the on demand channel, choose sports and exercise, exercise tv, and then jillian. i'm thinking that i'm gonna be able to survive the week doing it. wish me luck!
